Thank you Regina.

Due to a quirk in DroidMail I am enclosing my responses in brackets

[like this]

to distinguish them from the text to which I'm responding.

Do you have used already methods to get more free place on drive C?

[The cleanup to which I referred performed at least the first two of these.]

Empty trash.
Empty all temp or tmp folders.

[I will have to look up how to do the next one for FireFox.]

Empty the cache of your browser and/or move the location for the cache of you 
browser to drive D.

[All of this misses my point which is that the installer requires space on one 
specific volume (I.e. on C:) and that this disk usage apparently cannot be 
redirected to another volume (e.g. D:). It looks like I might be able to 
migrate one application (Pegasus Mail) from volume C: to volume D:. That's 
simply a work-around — not a fix for the basic problem.]
